Fra november-udgaven af Scandinavian Traveller:
"..A321LR (long range), which will allow for a new type of route to be served. The Long Range project has really got me going, Backström says. We've been working on it for about two years, understanding the cost side of things, the operations and what you can build onto it. It's a super-attractive assest for SAS, since we operate from Scandinavia and our widebody planes have 250 or 300 seats, which, on some routes, are too many. In addition to our ambition to be as sustainable as possible, it's one of our core tasks to optimize seats and passengers. The A321LR reaches northeastern US, Canadaand India, and has around 160 seats. So, especially outside our main hub in Copenhagen, it opens up some very exciting opportunities."
Så intet nyt fra SAS, men det bekræfter at de stadigvæk (også) ser på ruter med tyndere trafik fra andre steder end CPH.
